Making Changes to a Purchase Failure: Editing, Unposting & Deleting a Purchase Failure

Updated 31 October 2026

A Purchase Failure can’t be edited. If you created one by mistake, or with the wrong date, unpost it and delete it, then create it again if you need to.

Remove a Purchase Failure

  1. If the failure has been reconciled, unreconcile it first from the bank account’s Bank Feeds tab. See Unreconcile Matched to Payment.
  2. Open the failure from the PP Failures tab in Aedon.Purchases, or from the Purchase Failures tab of the payment.
  3. Click Unpost(1). The status changes to Draft.
  4. Click Delete and confirm.

Once the failure is deleted, the Purchase Payment counts as paid again and the invoice’s outstanding amount goes back down by the amount of the failure(2).
